    Decided to invest in this model based on the reviews between the stainless steel and the aluminum. My co-worker has the first gen with the ion glass without protection and that one has so many extremely fine scratches on the display from just regular use. I don't feel the need to use a screen protector on this model, which is great because I think it'd take away from how sleek it looks. So far I've had no issue, battery life is great, end of the day with regular use I still have around 50% and I don't think it impacts the batter life that much of my iphone 6s as well.

    Love the fitness tracking with the watch. Easy to use and learn how to operate. Access to lots of apps and text messages. Would highly recommend.

    Plain and simple, if you are a watch guy or gal this is not for you. If you like tech and a conversation piece then it's good. The battery is pathetic. The screen is just a tad too small for most functionality. It was good as a series 1, but the water resistance of the series 2 is a much needed improvement.

    Series 2 Watch seems to last longer from a battery perspective than the original Apple Watch, own both. Like the water resistance added feature.

    I owned a 1st Generation Watch and loved how versatile it was while I could change multiple bands depending on my outfit. I really took advantage of all the exercise apps and how the watch tracks all this data. Obviously as an iPhone owner the watch is super compatible and kind of works as an extension of your phone. I love this 2nd Generation 42mm Stainless Steel black ⌚️. With the addition of built in gps, water resistant and a faster processor it's an upgrade for me. I recommend this Watch to iPhone users only.

    Apple Watch Series 2 Stainless

    The new Apple watch series two does everything it is supposed to do. The new internal GPS seems to track distance fairly well. Setup time was extremely reduced vs the older version due to the faster processor. I have had my running since they launched with no issues. My one complaint from the activity side is the average speed indicated using the Nike+ run app. It spikes a lot vs giving me consistent times. I know for a fact I do not go from a 7 minute mile to 10 minute mile and back in the span of 30 seconds. That is too large a swing in speed to not notice. The speaker phone does seem to be a touch louder than the original. Other than that, the new Web OS3 is spot on to fix a lot of problems. Side note: the water ejection button is not well advertised. You have to physically select the speaker eject water option after submerging the watch for it to work properly. Pro: -Faster operation -Internal GSP -Better sounding speaker Con: -Have to buy a new watch -Most of the newer features not well explained

    Perhaps I should have waited to write this review as I believe one day is not enough to fully test this watch; however there's no need to wait; I've played with it all day and the battery is still at 73%. Is comfortable to use; has great features, my favorite being water resistant. This is the main reason why I wouldn't buy the series 1. Also this is a nice upgrade to the aluminum casing. Treat your self to a nice piece of technology.

    A solid SmartWatch for Apple users

    I don't think anyone really needs a smartwatch... They're fun and useful, but still basically a gadget more than anything else. If all you want is a fitness tracker, there are cheaper options out there surely. But if you like gadgets, and you primarily work in the Apple eco system, there's no question that the AppleWatch makes a solid addition. My biggest debate when looking to by was between the Aluminum and Stainless Steel versions. I was attracted to the Aluminum because they're a bit cheaper, but the Stainless Steel seemed to be tougher and so far that's held true. I've accidentally banged it around a bit and haven't seen any damage to the screen and only minor scuffs to the case which I can buff out. Some folks online were concerned with the weight, but I don't really notice it since I used to wear a fairly heavy watch anyway. If it's going to be an everyday watch and you expect some wear and tear I'd go with the stainless steel.

    This has ended up being my daily watch. Along with the fitness applications counting calories and suggesting activity, the notices that I receive keep me from digging in my pocket to see why I just got buzzed. News updates, weather alerts, text messages and phone calls all come to the watch. Text messages can be responded to and phone calles can be answered and carried on via the watch. I like it so much I have bought four bands of different colors and materials for atheletic and casual dress.

    Like I did and suspect many others do before diving in to buy an iWatch, we went to the Best Buy reviews to check them out for guidance. It certainly helped me and I hope my review helps you. I purchased the 42 mm stainless steel case sapphire crystal model and I can't be more pleased! Granted it is more money but it was the right choice for me because I'm hard on watches and the last thing I wanted to do was scratch it based on reviews by others (thank you!). And yes, I have inadvertently bumped it against things in normal daily activities already with no injuries to the watch or me. Yea! I also have put on a Zagg protector and I would highly recommend that too. Please look at my review for this item too under that product. As far as the watch itself, it was easy to set up and I'm using it more and more each day because you really don't know how it will help you until you use it for a few days to a week. There are so many options to use which is very cool! They just keep coming! To have a different watch face everyday or hour if you want is great all by itself let along with the thousands of other uses you could take advantage of too is a winning combo! In summary, I highly recommend this to those on the edge of buying. The final straw for me was if they went on sale, I would give it a whirl. They did and I plunged and I'm very happy that I did! Cheers!

    I debated getting the Apple Watch since the initial launch. I finally broke down and got the series 2 about a month ago and I am glad I did. I really enjoy changing the watch faces. Battery easily makes it through the day. The display is great and the watch is very comfortable. While it is not a necessity, it really is fun and I look forward to wearing it!

    The battery life on this watch has lasted up to two and a half regular work days (admittedly these are days where I have not had time to use the workout feature). This is with regular use of finding text message, directions, and reminders to move around. I have had this for a few weeks now, and I love how interchangeable it is. This particular product also has a screen made of sapphire, and I have not noticed any scuffing at all.
